Spot crypto ETFs showed divergent fund flows last week, with Solana (SOL) and XRP products recording net inflows, while Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) spot ETFs experienced notable net outflows.

Spot crypto ETFs showed divergent fund flows last week, with Solana (SOL) and XRP products recording net inflows, while Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) spot ETFs experienced notable net outflows.

Weekly Net ETF Flows

  • Bitcoin (BTC): –$782 million
  • Ethereum (ETH): –$102.34 million
  • Solana (SOL): +$13.14 million
  • XRP: +$64 million

Market Context

The outflows from BTC and ETH ETFs suggest a period of profit‑taking or risk reduction in the two largest cryptocurrencies, following extended periods of strong inflows earlier in the cycle. Macro uncertainty, shifting rate expectations, and short‑term price volatility may have contributed to the pullback.

In contrast, SOL and XRP ETFs attracted fresh capital, signaling selective investor interest in large‑cap altcoins. Market participants point to relative performance, rotation trades, and expectations around ecosystem growth and regulatory developments as possible drivers.

Key Takeaways

  • Capital rotation: Investors may be reallocating from BTC and ETH into select altcoin exposure
  • Altcoin resilience: Positive flows into SOL and XRP indicate sustained demand despite broader ETF outflows
  • Short‑term sentiment shift: ETF flows reflect tactical positioning rather than a broad reversal of long‑term trends

Looking Ahead

Analysts will be watching whether:

  • BTC and ETH ETF outflows persist or stabilize
  • Inflows into SOL and XRP accelerate
  • Broader market sentiment turns risk‑on again

ETF flow data remains a closely watched indicator of institutional and allocator sentiment in the crypto market.

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

The post Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Federal Reserve has made its first Fed rate cut this year following today’s FOMC meeting, lowering interest rates by 25 basis points (bps). This comes in line with expectations, while the crypto market awaits Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech for guidance on the committee’s stance moving forward. FOMC Makes First Fed Rate Cut This Year With 25 Bps Cut In a press release, the committee announced that it has decided to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 bps from between 4.25% and 4.5% to 4% and 4.25%. This comes in line with expectations as market participants were pricing in a 25 bps cut, as against a 50 bps cut. This marks the first Fed rate cut this year, with the last cut before this coming last year in December. Notably, the Fed also made the first cut last year in September, although it was a 50 bps cut back then. All Fed officials voted in favor of a 25 bps cut except Stephen Miran, who dissented in favor of a 50 bps cut. This rate cut decision comes amid concerns that the labor market may be softening, with recent U.S. jobs data pointing to a weak labor market. The committee noted in the release that job gains have slowed, and that the unemployment rate has edged up but remains low. They added that inflation has moved up and remains somewhat elevated. Fed Chair Jerome Powell had also already signaled at the Jackson Hole Conference that they were likely to lower interest rates with the downside risk in the labor market rising. The committee reiterated this in the release that downside risks to employment have risen. Before the Fed rate cut decision, experts weighed in on whether the FOMC should make a 25 bps cut or…
